Proceeding contribution from Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 13 December 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Terrorism Bill.

Terrorism Bill

I am sorry to interrupt. My noble friend and I did not argue ““absolutely””; we said ““as things stand now””. We said that this was not a point of principle but an operational point. I would not wish the noble Lord to proceed on the basis that this is a point of principle. I made the point of saying twice ““if things could be made so that this could be admissible”” but, as things currently stand, in my view it could not.
